Review of Juno (2007) by Andy — 29 Apr 2008

I found this film insulting. Everybody raves about how cool and witty the dialogue is, but it is so unrealistic. Nobody talks like that, especially not a 16 year old girl. You may find the dialogue impressive if you are used to the normal Hollywood fare, but this is a crock.

There is no depth to any of the characters, you can see right through them and predict the entire film in a matter of minutes. I cannot imagine how this won an academy award for best screenplay. Hollywood sure likes to find little "indie darlings" and make money off of them.

Put this right up there with Garden State and Little Miss Sunshine. A complete joke. Go see a real film.
